The third set of speaker was Azrael Coladilla and Kring Elenzano where they talk about Video Blogging, I have not yet tested doing Video Blogging, well actually because I am shy in Video 🙂 . I might as well shoot some video and upload it and share it to my readers. The two speakers shares some tips on how you will be able to do videos that will be accommodated in Youtube.

The fourth speaker was Edwin “Ka Edong” Soriano, it is the first time I saw Edwin, I thought he was old and it is only yesterday that I know He is not 🙂 , we have some Online conversation already .

While Juned speaks the Do’s and Don’t in blogging which focused in Google Webmasters suggestion, Juned even gave free dinner to the one that answer his question.

So the Summit continues and the first speaker in the afternoon was Atty. JJ Disini , Legal issues in Blogging , I actually heard him last year and He discusses issues about fair use, It is only now that I discovered that government site is not included in the copyright law. and it is only yesterday I knew that the copyright of a certain materials that you made starts on the first point of your work. The water mark in pictures was also discussed.

Dir. James Jimenez, COMELEC-EID Director, discusses about the importance of having blogger involvement during the election. He also says that they don’t have jurisdiction with those possible candidates that are now having TV Ads since those person have not yet filed their candidacy.

Janette Toral discusses about the Citizen Journalism for the 2010 Elections, Oliver Robillo was not able to come so his topic was also discussed by Janette, If in case you want to be part of the bloggers that will watch election in 2010 don’t hesitate to contact Janette She is now being contacted by different NGO about the possible Bloggers interaction during the 2010 Election.
